I’ve only seen Frank Herbert’s Dune but I thought the new one was too quickly paced and consequently boring. It needed to be slowed down and allow the world of Dune to fully seep. There’s no chance that part two will fix this.
I wouldn’t mind some ‘uncomfortably long’ shots of rocks or something after the more storyful scenes. Like a 20 minute segment with no dialogue. We don’t get enough of that.
Would go great in a spiritual scifi whose protagonist is a planet.
It’s because money and resources are only valuable in a literal, clinical way. It’s a math problem that beats us over the head until we start thinking that’s how you measure value. That crap is how we sustain our bodies but not our “spirit.” True value comes from humans transmuting basic matter into feelings, sentiments, memories. All the money in the world couldn’t help Gates buy a good gift for himself. He needs people close to him to transmute objects into meaningful gifts.
I think the richer you are, the more aware you are that “money can’t buy happiness.” When we plebs hear this we can’t help but think about the literal value of things, but if you’re rich it takes on a different connotation. Though I can only assume and extrapolate what it must be like.
If you use humans to fine tune and judge the quality of output, then in some sense, that’s pretty much all the AI can possibly do.
Everyone can see the output, “I don’t know.” and mark it zero (dude). But the meat bags will definitely end up rewarding the model if it instead generates some plausible nonsense.
